What is Breema Bodywork?

The practice of Breema, from the mountains of Kurdistan, is designed to create harmony and to balance the mind and body.

It is based on a revolutionary understanding of the Universal principles that govern life and health, and is the simplest, most natural form of touch and body movement.

The method uses comfortably supported movements including firm yet gentle stretches, precise and gradual leans into the muscles, nurturing brushes and holding postures and a wide variety of playfully rhythmic movements.

The Breema system places particular emphasis on the experience and comfort of the practitioner, teaching that we can best support others by being truly present with them. Its Nine Principles of Harmony are key in this practical approach to self-understanding that nurtures and harmonizes the mind, body, and feelings of the practitioner as well as the recipient. Done with the recipient fully clothed on a padded floor, Breema bodywork uses a wide variety of rhythmic movements, gentle stretches, and fully-supported postures. The system includes Self-Breema exercises that also release physical, mental, and emotional stress.
